well we're moving on up

For the past four days, I've been unable to log into my myspace page. It's getting to be pretty annoying. I get emails sent to me automatically telling me that I have pending friend requests and messages, etc. But, I can't check any of them. I went ahead and emailed the tech support at myspace, but haven't heard anything back from them. It sucks. It's a weird feeling, but it's kinda' like feeling like I'm locked out of my apartment or something. Only, I don't actually live in a website and the mere notion of it is crazy.

Amanda and I spent the weekend packing for the big move. Laundry? Done. Stuff? Packed. Trash? Trashed. All in all, very productive. I have a huge list of stuff that I need to get accomplished this week before Friday, but it's a list that keeps shrinking and that makes me feel good.

Also making me feel good right now is that fact that I said my last "see you in a week" to Amanda this morning. We've spent so many Monday mornings over the past 5 years saying "Have a great week. See you next weekend." and now it's all coming to an end. Adios, Long Distance Relationship. Bonjour, Co-habitation. (and apparently, trilingual salutations.) I can't wait. I'm really looking forward to the two of us getting to spend so much more time together.

One of the things that we've found over the years is that - only seeing each other on the weekends - there's an inherent pressure to make sure that the weekend isn't wasted in anyway. If we're just sitting around doing nothing, it's because we decided that it was what we wanted to do; not that it just spontaneously happened. We make plans, we make lists, we do chores/errands, we do social things, etc. But, there's usually some element of a hectic schedule involved (even if only minorly) because we know that if we don't finish everything, we have to wait another week before we can pick up with it again.

I'm looking forward to that being over. I'm looking forward to being able to ask Amanda out on a date in the middle of the week. I'm looking forward to relaxing with her on the sofa after a long day at work. I'm looking forward to everything about it.

Anyway, guess that's the big thing on my mind today and all I have to write about. I went from packing up the apartment to coming into work and packing up my office for our big move.

Woohoo! I'm totally looking forward to our first weeknight movie date! Okay, so that 12:20am showing of Ep3 was our first, but that was a silly plan, including my falling asleep during the actual movie and your drowsy drive home on Thursday morning.

And the cat! We're going to have a cat. How...domestic...of us!

And maybe now you can go to a work function of mine once in a while...or maybe not, because you'll still work an hour away from my work.. but it could happen! =) It'll be more probable now than ever before, anyway.

Enough of my chatter here.. I should be saying this stuff in my own blog ;)
